Our Story
Together, We Go Farther.
Power Suit Project is the brainchild of five professional women who met during a 6-month leadership program. After completion of the leadership program, they kept in touch through monthly dinners and continued to share and learn from their collective experiences. They decided to create their own power circle of equally ambitious and supportive women with whom they could share and seek insight, guidance, and support in making their respective visions of success a reality. Within months, their modest power circle grew to over 100 members and Power Suit Project was born!
